Graham Reveals Spanian's Real Career Goal

Australian MMA veteran Peter Graham has shed light on why popular social media personality Spanian, whose real name is Anthony Lees, never entered professional kickboxing. Graham explained that Spanian's ambition to become a significant Instagram identity and acquire property ultimately took precedence over a fighting career. He believes that influencers, in general, struggle to reach the highest echelons of kickboxing due to their multifaceted online pursuits.

Spanian has experienced a remarkable life transformation after serving 12 years in prison for serious offenses, including armed robbery and grievous bodily harm. He has successfully rebuilt his life primarily through engaging content creation on social media platforms. His YouTube series, 'Into The Hood,' which explores challenging global communities, has garnered substantial international acclaim.
